Xiao Hui Wang's portraits focus not so much on their subjects' social or material standing but on their individuality - in particular on their eyes. This volume presents 70 of the photographers' most powerful works, taken during her travels in North and South America, Europe, Asia and Australia. There is a commentary by Xiao Hui Wang, which sheds light on her work. Wang photographs normal people encountered in everyday situations in streets, cafes or in their homes. Her subjects are women, men, and children of different ages, professions and social background. Each portrait reveals an individual existence, abstracted from environment, culture and nationality.
